This is a school near here:
http://www.maritimemartialarts.com/tkd.html
Does anybody think that this place would be a good place to go to?

Can't really tell from the website.
Any half decent school will let you have you first lesson or 2 free so you can see for yourslef. Just go and have a go and see for yourself.

It sounds okay but it's really hard to tell just by looking at the site.

It sounds good to me. They teach Hapkido as well as TKD. This quote would make me check it out "* Note: The Martial Art of Tae Kwon Do, not the sport, is instructed here." Sounds like my dojang. The sport end of it is offered but not taught as if it was. If I were you, I'd give it a try. Take advantage of any free lessons to see if you like it.

Thanks Guys
I think I might check it out.
I've been in kung fu and kickboxing for a while.
I've recently moved to a new city, and I don't really feel the kung fu schools around here have much to offer, and they charge a lot.
I was thinking of trying something a little different.

Master Murray wrote in his accomplishments that he is a 7th dan Black Belt Tae Kwon Do. This I assume is under WTF, as I can't find any reference to Master Murray in any ITF Master listings.
If you could find out what patterns/tul's are taught we could determine what style of Taekwon-do is being practiced.
Respectfully,

It looks good from the website and the instructor has a decent resume. Go take some intro lessons and see what it's like. Talk to a few of the students and make a decision. Good luck.
